Halloween and Wil Wheaton

Crazy Halloween Article
Most blogs that I read have covered this so I won't say much. Its batshit crazy. If your sane and read it, you will understand why I don't really need to say anything about it than "batshit crazy".

Wil Wheaton is awesome. Read his book Just a Geek and its great. You don't have to be a geek to understand it, though it obviously has some things that will make no sense unless you are, however its an interesting look into someone who struggled with his acting success early in his career and lack of acting success later (though he has had a recent thing on The Guild and on Big Bang Theory which is awesome in both cases).

Lastly, I'm a bit depressed that I was at my parents house in Menifee during Halloween night and we had like literally 8 kids. No, I did not typo that. 8 fucking kids. I remember when I was a kid there was a huge amount, like 50 or maybe even more. We would sometimes go all out, set our porch (or one year our garage as a scary little maze and then you would get the candy) and do some cool stuff. Even when I was a teenager and didn't really go out myself, I would still stay at home and scare kids and it was fun. Hard to do that or even imagine that when you, in the same neighborhood 15 years later and its down to 8 kids. Its sad, and I wish I knew whats up with that as it does seem in recent years that it has gone down in kids more and more. However, it could be more people read the first article I posted and buy that crazy. Could be the economy though I think thats not it as its been many years that it gets less and less. Just sad as I used to get into Halloween and its kinda lame (though I did go to a wedding the night before that a lot of people were dressed up in costume so that was cool and it was an awesome though perhaps unusual wedding :p)
